Mrs. Occhino's Second Grade

Welcome to Sam Rayburn ISD!

I am excited for the 2019-2020 school year! I will be teaching second grade this year. This will be my fifth year to teach. I taught pre-k for two years, sixth grade for one year, and third grade for one year. I am married to John, and we have four children. I love spending time with my family, being outdoors, sewing, and watching the Dallas Cowboys! I am looking forward to a great year!

At Home Learning/Assignments

While the school is shut down due to the COVID-19 virus, students are encourage to do online learning through the following websites. Your child has used the following before and should know how to log on. If they forgot their log in information, let me know through Class Dojo or Messenger.

If you do not have access to internet new packets will be available for pickup at the school on Tuesday March 24th from 8am-6pm.

I will be offering virtual hours outside of the regular school day for anyone that has any questions or needs help with anything. My hours will be Tuesdays and Thursdays 6pm-7pm. You can contact me through Messenger or Class Dojo.

New assignments for March 23-27th:

Edmentum: There are new assignments that I have provided in Reading, Language Arts, and Math. Once these assignments are completed, the students can work on their Learning Path if they choose.

Education Galaxy: There are two new assignments for Math and two for Reading. Afterwards, students can do any other lessons. They know how to find everything. Games are included in this program and they enjoy trying to earn stars to change their alien ranking.

Seesaw: I sent the code to each person through Class Dojo. This program offers more of a hands on learning and allows the students to record themselves doing different things. I have uploaded some things on here for students to work on but it is not mandatory. This is more of a fun way to keep busy while still learning!

Epic!: Students can listen or read stories on this site. Afterwards, have them take AR quizzes. They love to watch videos but they can't take AR quizzes on them. Their AR goal is 100.
